Crucial MCD XR5 Max Pro

Its a spec class, everyone has the "same spec" engine. The rest is up to you. They do this to help keep costs down for the poor people, more or less. Think about it, the guy with the biggest pocket book is normally gonna win. Tanker the engine out of the equation and limit what else you can do to the car and it levels the playing field. Now it's up to tuning your car and being a good driver.

The fg mini racing here is the same ?? you have to race a stock car (alloy diff and motor mount pipe and side rails are the only mods allowed ??) every one is on a level playing field ?? driver skill is what takes the flag?

 

[Seandonato73]

And car set up. A piss poor driver with a great set up will do better then a good driver with a piss poor set up. At least on dirt track from my experience. I'm a poopy driver......

Maybe its your setup?.?

 

[Seandonato73]

Nah my set up works just fine, for the most part. Need to mess with the steering from time to time, but it handles well. My driving just sucks.

That's it right there. Setting up the killswitch was a female dog but other than that I love it.
